Governor Lowden has some friends kind enough to "mention" him as a possible dark horse candidate for the Republican nomination for president. That may explain why the governor wants the farmers" to know how thoughtfully he spoke of them in the address at the state livestock rally at 10 a. m. March 20. But the farmers will look for more than kind and thoughtful words. They will ask, "What have you done?" The man who gets the farmers' support for president in 1920 will have to answer that question satisfactorily. _ THE "DANGER" OF BUREAUCRACY VERY opponent of government ownership of public utilities E and of other forms of monopoly has much to say of the danger of bureaucracy. By this they mean that under public ownership the ofiicers and employes of the utility or industry will form a solid political unit which will dominate the rest of government and the people generally. Every so often a railroad senator, for instance, struggles to his feet in the United States senate and solemnly warns the people against the danger of putting the railroads into politics. But can any one imagine a so-called bureaucracy stronger in its power to dominate the people than the present Standard Oil group, the packing trust, the railroad magnates, or the overlords of What Other Papers Say of Farmer Laws Newspapers and Magazines From All Parts of the Nation Show Interest in N.

Book Insurgent Democracy

Download or read book Insurgent Democracy written by Michael Lansing and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2015-11-06 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The farmer-led insurgency known as the Nonpartisan League thrived between 1915 and 1924, going so far as to take control of the North Dakota state legislature. Challenging entrenched political and corporate interests in America and Canada alike, the League and its grassroots populism had particular influence in the West. League leaders developed local communal financial and industrial institutions, while resisting national and international speculators and investors. Michael Lansing shows that the League was not a spasm of populist rage that burned itself out, nor is it a historical footnote. Rather, it is an instructive and even cautionary exemplar of how populist movements take shape under particular social conditions and across specific geographies, how they increase their influence, and how they die out. These are vital topics today, given the prominence of populist and pseudo-populist movements. Lansing shows that the League was responding less to government policies than to economic threats and transformations, much as today's movements do.

Book Political Prairie Fire

Download or read book Political Prairie Fire written by Robert Loren Morlan and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 1955-01-01 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Political Prairie Fire was first published in 1955. Minnesota Archive Editions uses digital technology to make long-unavailable books once again accessible, and are published unaltered from the original University of Minnesota Press editions. Political Prairie Fire was first published in 1955. The farmers of North Dakota were ripe for revolt when the magnetic figure of A. C. Townley strode into their midst and offered them a new political formula to redress their grievances. Townley's plan was simple but revolutionary; it called for the formation of a Nonpartisan Political League dedicated to the election of candidates through the established two-party system and to a platform emphasizing public ownership of certain vital farm services and facilities, such as terminal grain elevators and hail insurance on crops. Like the great prairie fires of the plains states, the political flames of the Nonpartisan League spread swiftly from one farm to the next across North Dakota and into the adjoining states. The League is regarded by many as the last of the great agrarian protest movements. It is historically significant because it achieved a measure of success well beyond that of most similar movements. It controlled the government of one state for some years, elected state officials and legislators in a number of midwestern and western states, and sent several congressmen to Washington. Its impact helped shape the destinies of a dozen states and the political philosophies of an important segment of the nation's voters. The League's methods of operation often serve today as a guide for political action. This is the first detailed, unbiased history of the Nonpartisan League. Thoroughly documented for the specialist, it is nevertheless equally interesting for the general reader.
